  text: We give a lower bound on the ground state energy of a system of two fermions
    of one species interacting with two fermions of another species via point interactions.
    We show that there is a critical mass ratio m2 ≈ 0.58 such that the system is
    stable, i.e., the energy is bounded from below, for m∈[m2,m2−1]. So far it was
    not known whether this 2 + 2 system exhibits a stable region at all or whether
    the formation of four-body bound states causes an unbounded spectrum for all mass
    ratios, similar to the Thomas effect. Our result gives further evidence for the
    stability of the more general N + M system.
